Its now called Cancer mod


It was called cancer before, but then I started making it grow across surfaces only, and it looked a lot like StarCraft's "creep" for the Zerg, or the WarCraft 3 Undead "blight" (a word I used in the OP). And yes, I did notice how it hearkened to knuckle-cracker's game, and I figured if they can steal a name from StarCraft, I can steal a name from them. So while I don't claim any direct relation, I'm sure it was in some way a piece of inspiration along the way.

It was submitted to RTB 45 hours ago and has yet to be approved by a moderator, so no, no release yet. You can go bug any mods you happen to know personally if you want to try and speed up the process.  :cookieMonster:

This looks epic. How does it work? I mean like how does it spread and such?

Submitted it to RTB. Once it's approved I'll write up an extensive user's guide here on the forums, and then I'll reveal it for public download. I definitely have further plans for what I want to do with this thing in a separate mod, but yes, it's a real, permanent release.
You put it up as a private mod. They don't need to be approved or anything before others on your set list (use the FileCP) can download it.

The only problems I can see on the RTB scanner are the item icons of the brick (set to "", nonexistant) and the tool (should be "printer", not "printGun")

Did you fix all the things like making it only affect a certain minigame rather than the entire server?

Oh god, public realese anytime soon?

I can't find any printer.dts in my Blockland Directory, only PrintGun.

It's set to private so that I can dictate its time of release; I was going to set it to public once it was approved. Is there any means to do this without you guys ignoring it, just for future reference?

Also, the system is too CPU-intensive to support multiple creepers, so no it's still server-wide.

Its that purple thing right?
Can it be a mini who survives the longest with push broom to push others to the creeper?

The problem is the item icons, not the model.

If you set it as public it'll go into the normal approval queue so we can check it. It's possible to specially go and look at the private mods but approving it will not do anything. In any case without minigame support it'll affect everyone's bricks and cause problems. If I want to join a server and build without joining the minigame and you're playing a creeper game somewhere far off, it should be possible.

Can you and Psycho please stop spamming me with PMs? You sent me your last one at 3:30 AM. I am not the only moderator, go bug Ephialtes to get some more reviewers if you want it approved since I believe it's not ready with that problem.

And would the beta testers be the 4 or 5 people I actually asked for some kind of help in-game, or just everyone who happened to richard around in the server when it was open?  :cookieMonster:
Yes.

Wow Realy?! http://knucklecracker.com/
I knew about Creeper World when it came out. This mod is still awesome.

The goal for the item icon is for it to be a big black ? mark. If this is the case, I have failed in nothing.

So you're saying if you approve it and then I change the mod to public, it will need to be approved again? If so, why is it set up that way? If not, why the hell have you still not approved it after all the posts here and PMs??

I have no idea what this means.

It totally is. Creep spawns are only placeable by admins, and the mod doesn't really screw with anything else.

Also I only sent you one PM. I'm unaware of all others.

So, how do you stop the Creeper? :o
